Simon Cowell Not Impressed By Twitter

• 5th Apr 2009

Simon Cowell has said that he doesn't get Twitter. After reading a Twitter message from Idol host Ryan Seacrest, which said “spent weekend with my fam”, he opined: “What's sad is that he's having to use the Twitter language like he's 17. 'My fam' – how difficult is it to add on an 'ily'?”

It's like phoning someone randomly, whose number you don't have, and talking to them. 'Hi, it's Simon, I went out with my family this weekend'”.
